Sir Tharkin Oakstar is a well known war veteran of Garhiem, who comes from a family of warriors. Years ago, he led a battalion of soldiers against the Outlaws. He won a glorious victory for Garhiem, but suffered a leg injury during the battle. Because of this, Sir Tharkin is not as fit as he one was, so he devotes his energy to his role as senior tactician in the Garhimi Army.

He is quite wealthy, as his family once saved a rich merchant, and received much gold as a reward. Here he is by his house in Haven Hill.
